The streets — Less Talk, More Action

The bug that had been attacked by the Rex fell down after one shot. That was surprisingly easy so Rex decided to aim at another one of the bugs who had unfortunately killed a man and was burying him. He loaded the cannon again with whatever was on the ground and shot at it.

"Say cheese!"

Ben and another guy with a cape and metallic skin both said that protecting the people that were going to the library should be their next step. Talking about their future strategy wasn't going to make the bugs go away and Rex was happy to point that out.

"Yeah, can't we just deal with these things first?"

Cole still seemed to be struggling against something, murmuring frantically, rubbing at his head. When Sophie tried to lift him, he didn't really resist, just let her hold him up, going strangely silent until the man took him, starting towards the stairs.

"...wait."

The man seemed bewildered at the odd tone of the young man, but Cole shook his head, using the man's arm to try and brace himself on his feet. "Go upstairs. I can't...I need to..."

He pulled away, staggering towards Tairee's desk, a little more steady on his feet than before, but with a strangely blank look on his face as he reached her, putting his hands down to brace himself up.

"I need a bow and arrows. I can fight with those. I will help fight."

It was clear that Cole wasn't quite normal, and still struggling to stay stable, but he remained standing there, head hanging, just breathing hard with the effort to stay upright.

Library, North Section - Opening fire

Since the streets were now clear of civilians and there was a new wave of creatures approaching soon, Caro decided to change tactics for soon. She had Fried fly closer to the edge of the top of the barricade, almost crossing over to the outside. Then while the dragon began to gather fire from his mouth, she simultaneously casted a new spell. Once Fried had a medium-sized fireball ready, she called out, "Blast Flare!" causing him to launch it at the enemies. While in mid-air, the fire split off in order to hit multiple targets. This was aided by the fact that as well helping Fried aim, her spell granted the fire explosive and binding properties in order to maximize its use. They would then keep repeating this action until the group was mostly cleared or something else, like the reapperence of civilians in the area, made continuing with this course of action inadvisable.

Library, North Section

Karkat got called out for his reckless actions by the militia while they shot down a few members of the horde. It made sense since they cared about the welfare of the citizens in town, and by walking past the barricade they set up to fight the zombies, Karkat was needlessly risking his own life.

In the meantime, Twilight helped out by floating the citizens with her magic. That Twilight is pretty resourceful if she put her mind to it. Lune gave Twilight a thumbs up of approval for coming up with that plan.

Caro resumed her barrage of magic, pausing in case there were more citizens running into the library to avoid friendly fire. Lune slowly pulled out her Hyper Blaster Rifle and took aim.

“Need a hand?” asked Lune to Caro. “With all of these zombies, I’m sure you might have a few blind spots, right?”

Lune aimed for the zombies’ vital spots and fired a few laser blasts herself. Like Caro, she took the possibility of civilians running around like headless chickens into consideration and paused in case anymore decided to show up.

Center of the library

Miss Tairee didn't say anything, but did glance back at Sans in thought for a moment as he leaned back against the desk, then went back to making boxes of different types of ammo appear on the desks around her.

When Cole came over and asked for a bow, she looked at him with slight surprise and blinked a couple time, raising an eyebrow. "... I don't really think that's the best idea right now, but if you insist, then hold on..." Miss Tairee muttered, and started typing away on her computer. After a bit and once she'd finished her typing, a simple, modern style bow appeared on one of the desks, along with ten arrows.


Library, second floor

"Mary? Mary! I don't, I don't know, I don't want to think about it, don't want to talk about what I did just so she could have cake" Kelsey said, talking very quickly and shaking her head, clutching at her hair with her free hand. "Mary never mattered, just another servant, got close to her to get to you, YOU are the one he wanted! Living emotion just like Cole, just like him! The demon, the master, the one who wants control of the city and everything!" she continued, nearly hyperventilating.

She took a sudden deep breath and paused for a few moments, then spoke again, still quickly. "So if you're here, then he might come here to get you! And when he does he might get me again, and make me start doing those things again! More fighting, more killing, more blood! Blood for the blood god and skulls for the skull throne!" Kelsey ranted, tears streaming from her closed eyes as she buried her face in her arms.

Library - this doesn't look right

Sans got no response, either she didn't know what punishment she could give him or she just didn't care anymore. Either way, Cole soon made his way over to the desk asking for a bow of all things. Although asking for that mpractical weapon for this situation was a little silly, Cole's behavior was much more concerning as he didn't seem to be acting like normal. Considering his "normal" was usually freaking out about something, that would normally be a good thing but the way he was acting right now... he didn't like it.

"hey, cole, you all right? you're acting kinda... different," he said, then looking down at Cole's leg and noticing that the wound wasn't there anymore, it was probably Sophie's doing.

Sans couldn't tell if Cole was really fit for fighting now, but he couldn't really stop him considering he himself suggested to the spirit to stay in the library just so he could fight the things there. At least with a bow he wouldn't be throwing himself in danger very often.

"Please calm down," Sadness urged quietly. Her hand was half-stretched out towards Kelsey, but she was afraid to come any closer. "I don't...I don't really know what you're talking about, but I promise you that practically everyone I've met in this city is very nice, there's no one who's trying to get m—"

Oh. Oh, wait.

"...well..." she continued, her eyes widening behind her glasses. "Yesterday, when I was a fish, there was someone who tried to pick me up and take me away...and then my friends came to protect me, and then I died, and I guess I was safe from him. Is that who you're talking about?...The bird?"

Cole picked up the bow in one hand, holding it out as though to test the grip of it, then nodded slightly. "Thank you..." he murmured, taking the arrows and tucking them carefully into his belt, before he finally looked to Sans.

His eyes were glowing green, any other color hidden, but his expression wasn't angry, just...blank. He was still moving carefully, slowly, with some staggers, but his voice sounded clear and sure.

"There are people outside who didn't make it here. Not even close. Hid too long, couldn't fight as well. Hard as they run...get to the library, get to the library...there are monsters that are faster. People are hurt. They are dying. Ripped, wrapped up, rended...bitten, beaten, burned, broken...a woman who died, died screaming, and came back to life...she saw her own body, her own face, now a monster, now trying to kill her..."

Cole looked to the side, then back to Sans, still calm sounding as he could be. "My body is not getting better. I think it will die. Once it does, you should destroy it. Make sure it can't hurt anyone else. ...please try not to die. I like you, Sans. I don't want to have to hurt anything that looks like you."

Library - this is definitely not right

Sans winced a little bit, even just hearing Cole talk about that stuff was still gruesome. It also brought to light something he had been wondering for a while: dying to those zombies does result in you becoming one of them, but apparently you also revived somewhere else while your previous body is rampaging around. That also meant that as long as there were people outside, and there most likely were a lot of them, the zombie supply was pretty much infinite. There was no way they could save everyone who was outside, so it really was a matter of holding the fort until the day changed again.

"all right, i get it, things are bad for people who are still outside, but what do you mean your body is dying? weren't you healed just now?"

Granted, Cole wasn't looking particularly healthy and considering the sunlight seemed stronger outside, plus all the sand around, maybe he was starting to get really dehydrated. He thought of where he could find some water and then he recalled getting some juice boxes in the supermarket way back on the cartoon day.

"actually, wait here."

Sans moved over to the shopping bags that were still left on the same corner he had left them before, he picked a couple of juice boxes from them and also realized he had left his taser there, he decided to place it in his pocket just as a precaution. Once he was done there, he went back to Cole

"here, drink these, they might help you not die and i'd much rather not have to kill your already dead body if i can help it," he said, although he didn't think just dying of dehydration would be enough to make one turn into a zombie, he decided it was best to humor Cole for the time being.

Karkat - Library (North)

Lt. Wells was definitely loud enough for his shouting to reach Karkat, who just rolled his eyes and dashed back to the barricades. He made sure to pass by Wells and say AT LEAST I HELPED. He captchalogued his sickle and ducked behind the barricade, keeping watch.

Cole just watched Sans silently as he was told to stay put, as the skeleton went to fetch something, then came back with boxes, telling him to drink them. "Drink...throat cracked and aching, feeling angry and confused, exhausted, the thumping in the chest harder, skipping about...would it be that simple? The very act..."

He grimaced, putting his arm over his mouth, coughing again, weaving a bit on his feet before managing to stay upright.

"The act of this...eating, drinking, is so foreign. It is horrifying to consider. But that might stop the problems, let me help better. I shouldn't alarm people with this. All right. How...does this work?"

Library - there's a zombie invasion knocking at the doors and here i am teaching a person how to drink

Sans stared at Cole for a few seconds before shaking his head and placing the straw into the juice box.

"you see this?" he asked him, pointing at the straw, "suck on it and the juice inside will get to you, that's it, have fun," he explained, handing him the box.

Cole watched him put the straw into the box, handing it back, and he looked at it for a moment before taking the straw and taking a long drink from it, face immediately scrunching up in clear displeasure, but he relatively quickly finished off the box, before holding it up to look at it a moment.

"...that did feel...almost better. It still feels strange. Cold, chilling down through my throat, into my chest, easing the heat a moment, making the itch ease away. ...thank you. I hope I don't have to do that again."

Library - boy do i have some bad news to tell you

"as it turns out people need to drink and eat regularly to survive and at least here you're no exception," said Sans, then preparing another juicebox, "speaking of that, you should probably drink another just in case."

He could already tell that this kid would need to be introduced to monster food pretty soon.

Cole just looked at Sans for a brief moment, glowing eyes as expressionless as before, before turning his head, checking the barricades around them, then looking back to him. "...I hoped that wouldn't be the case. Sawyer...she spoke to me of such things..."

His voice did waver a moment at that, and after a second, the glow in his eyes seemed to go out, leaving him to hunch over slightly, tightening his grip on the bow in his other hand.

"This...the others...there's still so much battle outside..."

Library - helping you help the others

Sans then handed Cole another juice box "yeah, there's a lot going on and you should go help them because i might not be able to do much to help, but first take care of yourself, ok? you won't be able to do much to help if you're not in good condition."

It was weird that he of all people had to make sure Cole wasn't going around trying to get himself killed, or letting himself die because he didn't know what dehydration was. Either way, in a day like that where death would result in you becoming a zombie many times in a row, it was better not to let him die in a stupid way like that.

Cole winced, shaking his head for a moment, then taking another deep breath, seemingly trying to settle himself back down. "...we can...we can defend in here...p-pick off what gets through...we can...all right...all right. I've done this before. I've...I've fought through sieges."

He took a deep breath before drinking the other juice box, making a slight gagging noise when he finished it, shaking his head. "That...that still feels so wrong. But. All right. I...I can still hear them outside..."

Twilight looked pleased with herself. Her magic was doing wonders for saving the people and clearing the way for the militia to take down the zombies.

Unfortunately, Karkat had decided to make a fool of himself. Twilight rolled her eyes as he came back and claimed he helped. She took a quick pause to say,

"No, you didn't help. All you did was make the militia's job more difficult."

Library - back to normal, that's... good?

Cole seemed to be going back to his nervous self compared to how clear he was being before, that wasn't necessarily a good thing but at least it was something Sans was used to, the fact that he was gagging just from drinking juice was both funny and a little weird. Though... thinking again, human food spoiled, right? He had to wonder how long it would take for juice to spoil.

"you'll have to get used to doing that, maybe." He shrugged. "for now though, don't you have too few arrows? only ten is not nearly enough to fight a whole horde of things and i'm pretty sure you won't get to pick up the arrows you fire."

She hoped to send it flying into the other two dark creatures.

Demon god of change, he's the one leading Ruckus and he wants all our souls!" she ranted, shaking her head and trying to scoot away from Sadness again. Some of the random people around them were starting to look now, with expressions ranging between concerned, confused, and annoyed.


Center of the library

Miss Tairee didn't seem to be paying attention to Cole and Sans' conversation, just tapping away on her keyboard and making ammunition appear on the desks in blurs. A bit after San's mention of the arrows though, a couple bundles of ten arrows each wrapped in some sort of twine appeared on the desks as well.

Cole still looked rather disgusted by the juice, but looked to the new bundles of arrows, giving Miss Tairee another slight nod of things as he picked them up, considering before carefully tucking them into his belt as well, testing a moment to be sure he could draw them without much trouble. "I'm hoping not to have to...fight too many. But I need to help, any way I can..."

"Well, *urp* that trip was a bust." Rick tossed his gun over his shoulder as he strode towards the barricade, grabbing a particularly rotten zombie and punching its head clean off.

"I mean, uh, y-yeah, whatever you say, Rick." Morty looked eager to dive into a hole for the time being and never come out. "I mean, uh, w-what was the point of that anyway?"

"I forget."

"What?"

"I forgot what I was gonna do. I'm old. *urp* I had, a, a, a, senior moment or something. Plus, uh, y'know, I drink."

"Yeah, but..." Morty glared angrily up at his grandpa ,angry to be taken on a pointless wild goose chase. "Okay, forget it; I mean, you know, at least we-we, uh, w-we didn't become zombies or nothin'."

"Little victories, Morty. Get inside while *urp* Grandpa saves your ass." Rick cocked his jury-rigged plasma shotgun and waited for the next encroaching zombie.

"What *urp* what up, you... uh... you kids?" he said, trying to make conversation with the other defenders. "I mean, I dunno how old *urp* some of you are, but, you know - the general idea."

Library - well that's one less issue

Sans looked as the news arrows materialized on the desk, good thing they were still close to the librarian to get that out of the way faster.

"i'm pretty sure you're gonna have to fight more than a few of those things, we're probably gonna be at this for a while." Sans shrugged. "i'm gonna guess that the majority of the dead things we're fighting probably don't have a soul, which means i can't do much to them other than fire some weak magic at them. i'm probably gonna get in the way more than i'm gonna help if i try fighting."
